Cardboard Briefcase

thingiverse

The project consists of a laser-cut cardboard base made from two pieces, each measuring 24 by 18 inches, and a small 5 by 5-inch piece of Plexiglas, accompanied by several hand-cut cardboard inserts designed to facilitate smooth closure and hinge functionality. Three-dimensional printed components, including the handle and pins that secure the laser-cut latches (Plexiglas), are also integral to the design. To replicate this project, you will need to print four sets of pins – two inside and two outside. I am confident that the provided case file is accurate; however, without access to Illustrator, I cannot confirm its correctness. The assembled case measures approximately 12 by 18 by 6 inches in size. Assembly was facilitated using hot glue, although superglue or E6000-type adhesives could also be employed as alternatives.
